Wesley and his companion were obliged to dismount and lead their horses; but the poor animals fell down several times,notwithstanding all precautions. After eight o'clock at night they reached Gateshead Fell, which was a pathless waste of snow; but in their perplexity a Newcastle man overtook AN ADVENTUROUS RIDE. 83 them, and guided them safely into the town. "Many a rough journey," Wesley says, "have I had before; but one like this I never had--between wind, and rain, and ice, and snow, and driving sleet and piercing cold." Even in such circumstances he had travelled 280 miles in six days--nearly fifty miles a day. The February of the following year (1746) he was on his way to Stafford. As the travellers reached Aldridge Heath the rain changed into snow, and, driven by a strong north wind full into their faces, it crusted them over from head to foot. A man who lived at the entrance of the moors told them, "Tis a thousand pounds to a penny that you do not come there to-day." Yet although it was four miles across, and the snow covered the paths, and prevented them from seeing before them, they came to Stafford without getting ten yards out of their way. In the February of 1747, horse and man were well-nigh swallowed up in the snow drifts near Stamford. One morning the servant said to Wesley that there was no travelling that day. Such a quantity of snow had fallen in the night that the roads were quite blocked up. Wesley answered: " At least we can walk twenty miles a day, with our horses in our hands." So off went the resolute traveller and his companion. An Adventurous Ride.--Some idea of Wesley's itinerant life may be gained from the account he gives of an adv...

Excerpt from A History of Lay Preaching in the Christian Church So far as can be discovered, this little volume is the first attempt to write history of lay preaching. It is a fascinating subject. Some of the purest and most saintly Christian workers of both sexes have been lay preachers, and so have some of the wildest fanatics. The interest of the study, however, is not merely historical. It is a living subject full of suggestions for the Christian propaganda of our own times. Earnest men are anxiously inquiring how the multiplied calls for service are to be met. Village evangelism is the oldest and not the least fruitful field of labour for the lay preacher, but the masses of our great cities, and the multitudes who are in darkness in the heathen world, will not be reached without some vast extension of lay agency.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from The Spiritual Principle of the Atonement: As a Satisfaction Made to God for the Sins of the World, Being the Twenty-Seventh Fernley Lecture, Delivered in Leeds, July, 1897 In sending forth this volume, a word of apology is necessary. Those who know the constant pressure and the unceasing round of practical duties which are inseparable from the headship of a Settlement among the poor will be aware under what difficulties this book has been produced. I can hardly hope to have altogether avoided falling into mistakes which greater leisure would have enabled me to detect. The treatment of the subjects dealt with in chapters vi. and vii. is necessarily incomplete. To have attempted an exhaustive consideration would have been to transgress the limits imposed upon the writer. But some discussion both of our Lord's ethical perfection and of His relationship to the human race was demanded, if only to exhibit clearly the general point of view from which, throughout this Lecture, the Atonement has been regarded. I cannot refrain from expressing here my sense of the great debt which, under God, I owe to Dr. W. B. Pope for any light that has been given to me upon the meaning of our Lord's death.
